  • About the League

    The League of Women Voters was founded in 1920 by women who led the struggle for women's right to vote. In North Carolina, we have twenty local Leagues across the state.

    What does the League do? The League of Women Voters, a nonpartisan political organization, encourages informed and active participation in government, works to increase understanding of major public policy issues, and influences public policy through education and advocacy. The League does not support or oppose any candidate or political party.

    What Does the League Promote? Universal voter registration and effective election laws Fair, honest and open campaign practices Protection of our natural resources and environmental quality Responsible local, state and federal fiscal policies Safe, affordable housing and child care Women's issues An effective criminal justice system Fair and equitable taxes

    What Do League Members Do? Every new League member makes a difference in influencing the broad range of public policy issues you care about. When you join the League of Women Voters of Currituck County, you will begin to make a difference in the decisions made every day that affect you, your family, and your community. League members learn about their communities and their local government. They work to educate both citizens and government about issues and the way in which they affect our lives. And if you don't have time right now to participate in League activities, you can still be part of our work. As a member, your support gives us the strength we need to affect decisions made in our government.
